It's a City for Kids, Run by Kids!
Kidtropolis, USA marks a brand new spot on the map as a real-life kid metropolis complete with a skyline, city government, occupations and the systems that make a city work. It's where kids choose to be whatever they want to be!
Kids will keep the city running by taking on the roles of:
- city leaders
- voters
- workers
- shoppers
- business owners
They'll participate in a sophisticated, simulated economy where they can spend money on items and experiences throughout the city. But, like in real life, they will have to get jobs to earn money, and that's where the KidCard comes in handy!
The Kid Card is an ATM card which has a stipend of 40 Kidtropolis dollars on it. With it, kids can go on a shopping spree of tantalizing food items, special art workshops and other cool stuff. They can deposit their paychecks into a kids savings or checking account or hit the town for a day out!
Kidtropolis mirrors a real city, complete with its own city hall, municipal building, mercantile center, bank, news center, market, diner, art school, and even a vet clinic. Children can even elect a mayor, run for office, and decide what ordinances to pass!
Make your voice heard. Visit Kidtropolis, USA today!
